VIRFuel

VIRFuel is a fuel and weight calculation application designed for Boeing 747 / Airbus A340 pilots and operators using the Flywise flight plan.

The application is in metric tonnes and conforms to SOPs used for Virgin Atlantic operations.

Fuel and weight data is inserted from the front page of the flight plan (the ‘plan figures’) and can then be updated with desired loads and actual figures from the final ZFW/loadsheet. Changes in zero-fuel weight calculate updates to trip fuel and suggest a new ramp fuel. Alternatively a manually entered ramp fuel or required extra fuel at destination will calculate updates to trip fuel and ramp fuel.
